- Does anyone have any ideas for me....
I can't connect my OS2.0 PB to Desktop Manager because of the glitch some have faced here, DM doesn't notice my PB at all. My PB hasn't been backed up in a LONG time and I have a few games that I have played for hours and don't wanna lose all my saved game info, but I want to downgrade to OS1.7 because of the Browser problems with 2.0.
Is there anyway for me to downgrade without losing all my saved game data?11-07-11 12:30 PMLike 0 - 11-07-11 03:28 PMLike 0
- If you want multi-tasking where apps in the background still run...
make sure "Application Behaviour" is set to "Showcase"
Settings -> General -> Application Behaviour -> Showcase
Some people that complain about apps not running in the background probably have it set to "Default"11-09-11 09:54 PMLike 0 - Does anyone have any ideas for me....

Also the occasional crash was rather annoying.
I went back to 1.7 today because I found myself not using the PB anymore. The homescreen changes for 2.0 are AMAZING and perfect for me, but the browser is my most important app on my PB and it was worse. I can't wait for a perfected 2.0, but until it is perfected, I will stick with 1.7.11-18-11 12:39 PMLike 0 - Sorry, change extension to ".doc" for sure. Maybe a little too much Christmas cheer before posting!
Also, there may be folks out there who don't know you can do a web search by typing the search terms in the browser address bar. I think this is now true for all browsers.12-25-11 07:38 PMLike 0 - Experimenting with new PB and successfully downloaded OverDrive Media Console to be able to access MP3 and other e-Book formats as I do on my Curve 3G. However, I cannot figure out how to open the downloaded installation file mediaconsole.jad, which I can see in a file manager in the 'downloads' folder, but can't find such a folder or folder icon on any screen. Therefore, can't figure out how to start installer. Clicking on the program in a file manager merely turns a checkbox on or off.12-25-11 08:13 PMLike 0
- Whether or not this applies only to my unit... I have discovered that in an area of marginal wifi coverage (one or two bars) the signal will improve by one or two bars if you hold the PB in landscape mode with your left thumb over the lower LEFT bezel corner (diagonally opposite to 3.5mm jack) with as much of your palm as possible on bottom of unit....apparently one of the antenna PCB's is in this corner. As well, placing your thumb over the TOP left-hand corner reduces the signal. Note that there is a time lag of several seconds before the meter registers a new reading.
Once the signal is improved, you may leave you PB on the desk and the level will remain the same. BTW, the right corners (upper and lower) do not affect the signal.
In my case, the signal level with my left thumb over the upper left bezel corner was -74dB, and on lower left corner, it was -68 dB, an improvement of 6 dB.

- This one may be familiar to old timers, but it took me two weeks after I got my playbook to stumble on a forum post about this:
You can get free 50gb cloud storage from box.net when you download the box.net app from Appworld. (not sure how long this offer will last?)
Now I don't complain about the playbook missing a microSD slot that much anymorebatkinson001 likes this.01-17-12 11:36 PMLike 1 - I bought a play book from a friend,but when i try to log in, it is asking for a BlackberryID.
